2010 Match fixing scandal

In June 2010 Croatian Police started making arrest connected to match fixing in the Croatian League. 20 players in total, including 9 players from Croatia Sesvete were arrested. The nine were: Miljenko Bošnjak, Goran Jerković, Saša Mus, Ante Pokrajčić, Mario Čižmek, Marko Guja, Ivan Banović and Dario Šušak.[1] It was also claimed by the police that 7 of Sesvete's 8 last matches in the league were fixed. The players received up to 40 thousand euros for the match-fixing. In some cases, players even made "safe" bets on their own games.[2]
